Translation

Actually, it is not for 1000 days. It is just that 3 years times 365 days plus June 27 through June 30, 2008 equals 1098 days, and that is way too cumbersome to convert into a blog headline. Futhermore, our release date will not be determined until May or June of 2011. Therefore, 1000 Days sounded just about right, more or less. Having noted all that, we are humbled and thrilled (Pres. Uchtdorf would refer to the feeling as "joyfully overwhelmed") about having this marvelous opportunity to serve in La Mision Mexico Veracruz.

Con amor,

Not everybody lives in a pretty house. This man lives in this one with half a dozen kids, some chickens, and some dogs. He needs to divorce his wife so that he can marry the woman he lives with and get baptized. They both want that. She doesn't want a divorce, lives a couple of hundred miles away, and hasn't seen him for years. Divorces cost money. Obviously, he has none. These are every day problems for Sis Perez from Durango, Mexico and every other missionary in our mission. The little girl drinking Coke from the glass will drive your dental hygiene types nuts. The small teeth I could see are almost black. This is also an every day(every minute)thing around here.
